Chapter 090: Blue Moonlight (19)
Su Chenyu ran around in the yard and was chased and beaten by Luo Qifang.
Chen Yunli was still in shock. Not only did he not stop it, he even wanted to applaud and praise, saying "good fight".
"Calm down! Listen to my explanation! I only took this risk because I was absolutely sure!"
"Completely confident? What if I don't put away the knife in time, what if I don't wake up in time, can you block that knife? Or can Zhuji block it?"
Su Chenyu dodged and jumped behind Chen Yunli, put his hand on his shoulder and turned him towards Luo Qifang, using him as a shield very naturally and comfortably.
"Don't be nervous. Have you forgotten?" He leaned over from Chen Yunli's side. "You cast a protective spell on me, enough to withstand your full-strength attack. When you drew your sword just now, I was blocking your Zhuji."
As he spoke, he patted Chen Yunli's shoulder lightly, his tone rising happily.
Luo Qifang paused, not knowing whether it was because Chen Yunli was blocking her way or because Su Chenyu's words had brought back a memory. "It seems to be true... Don't talk nonsense, your family and my family."
After saying this, he pulled Su Chenyu out with a stern face, raised the back of his knife and slashed him lightly: "If you do it again, I will freeze you with my knife energy and hang you on the mast of a fishing boat for people to admire!"
"No, no, there won't be a next time." Su Chenyu waved his hand, then looked at Chen Yunli and bowed in apology. "I'm sorry, sir, I scared you."
The two of them bantered and bantered, completely dispelling Chen Yunli's anger. He straightened his untidy coat and said, "It's okay, as long as Mr. Luo is okay. It's getting late, go back to the house and rest."
"I'll take you there." Luo Qifang blurted out.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yunli turned his head and looked in his direction, which was less than twenty steps away from their current position.
Luo Qifang realized that she had made a fool of herself and smiled sheepishly: "Go to bed early and sleep a little longer. I will bring you something delicious tomorrow."
Although the words sounded childish, Chen Yunli didn't mind. He waved goodbye and went into the house.
After his door closed, Luo Qifang exhaled slightly and asked unhappily, "Tell me, what's going on?"
The two walked out of the yard side by side. Not far away was the beach. Silver waves rolled over the golden sand, and the pale yellow moonlight shone on the black reefs. The sound of the wind was empty and the sky and the earth were hazy.
"Xun Gui, tell me the truth." Su Chenyu said shockingly: "Do you like him?"
Luo Qifang pinched the corner of his sleeve, looking calm on the outside, but nervous inside. However, the person asking the question was his old friend after all, so he had no intention of playing dumb and hiding anything.
"A little bit." He scratched his temple. "I think he's very handsome."
"Just because of this?" Su Chenyu rolled his eyes. "You're pretty yourself, too. Why don't you fall in love with yourself at first sight when you look in the mirror?"
Luo Qifang kicked him: "Eye contact! Do you understand eye contact? The cultivation world is not short of beauties, but he is different. I think he looks a bit like my mother."
"...Are you not only superficial but also a mother-lover?"
"Will you listen to me?"
With Luo Qifang pointing a knife at him, Su Chenyu raised his hands and nodded: "Go on, I'm listening."
Luo Qifang sighed and confiscated the knife. "My mother died young, and my father remarried when I was very young. The only traces of her life left at home are a few scrolls in the study. One of those paintings shows her as a young girl, sleeping peacefully among fallen flowers, her eyes carefree. Zhuji looked a bit like her when she was unconscious, so I transferred my feelings to him and always wanted to be nice to him."
"Is that all?" Su Chen became more and more unconvinced. "Then why did you wake up from your state of enlightenment the moment you heard his name?"
"Because I value him very much now, but my feelings for him are not what you think." Luo Qifang stabbed him in the chest with the hilt of the knife, and then the long knife turned into light and disappeared, "At least not yet."
"Okay, if you say it's not, then it's not." Su Chenyu shrugged, his expression straightening. "By the way, you took the initiative to gain enlightenment tonight. Was it to protect him? Because the demon you encountered might come looking for him in the future?"
"I guess so, but more importantly, this incident has reminded me." Su Chenyu looked at his open palm, "I'm not yet strong enough to protect everything and roam freely in the world."
“…”
“…”
“…That’s really infuriating to hear.”
"hey-hey."
…
After returning to his room, Chen Yunli tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, so he simply closed his eyes and sorted out his memories, focusing on the parts related to cultivation.
According to the setting, he has neglected his cultivation for a while, and his talent is mediocre and his realm is not high. According to the realm division of this world - entering the Tao, returning to the heart, three disasters, virtual immortal, and free and easy five realms, he has only cultivated to the realm of returning to the heart, while Luo Qifang should have been half a step into the realm of virtual immortal.
According to the historical records of his simple spiritual body being born in the illusion and the biography written by the descendants of the Su family, his later self had to reach the realm of at least three tribulations and survive at least two tribulations to match the description of his world-famous character in the storybook.
Besides that, he also had to find a bow similar to the one described in the storybook as a weapon, and also make a name for himself as a melee archer...
If you count them carefully, the tasks in the second stage are far more than just having a relationship. He has a lot to do.
"Time waits for no one, we must hurry."
Chen Yunli muttered something, and memories came flooding back to his mind.
His current realm is between the late stage of Guixin and the peak of Guixin, and the martial arts he practices is the unique secret technique of Biechou Island, "Three Thousand Moons", which uses the bow to enter the Tao.
He had a bow made of fine steel, but he sold it when he became discouraged. Fortunately, he had only sold it a few times and hadn't used it much, so he didn't feel any regret when he recalled it.
Thinking of this, Chen Yunli turned over and sat up, deciding to start practicing seriously from now on. When daybreak came, he would ask Luo Qifang and Su Chenyu if there was a place selling weapons nearby. He would first buy a bow and practice close-quarters archery tactics.
Oh yes, he also needs to practice his archery accuracy, since his weapon is a bow after all.

So around noon, Luo Qifang came back excitedly with several kinds of Linhai delicacies that he had carefully selected, thinking that she could have lunch with Chen Yunli, but what she saw was him shooting at the sun in the yard.
It was really a sunshooting move. He used magic to condense a bow and arrow, and with the bright sun at noon, he launched a series of nineteen consecutive shots.
Luo Qifang was stunned, and Su Chenyu, who came back shortly after her, was also stunned.
"Zhuji, what are you doing?"
Seeing that Chen Yunli had finished shooting a round of arrows and then condensed another round of arrows beside him - this time there were thirty-eight arrows - Luo Qifang hurriedly asked.
Chen Yunli glanced at him sideways, then swiftly drew his bow and arrow, shooting it straight towards the sun, with such speed and skill that it was almost instinctive.
"I'm practicing the art of archery. This is the technique I'm training."
"Is this how you practice archery?"
Luo Qifang, a well-read and knowledgeable woman, felt for the first time that she was still relatively ignorant. "Can you really be accurate this way?"
"Accident?" Chen Yunli shook his head. "That's not important. I'm practicing my strength and the subtle control of my spiritual energy."
Hearing this, Luo Qifang, the crazy cultivator, immediately became interested: "What do you mean?"
Chen Yunli shot all 38 arrows in this round, spread out his hands, released the bow in his palms, and stretched his muscles on the spot.
"The archery I practice emphasizes powerful strikes... ahem, a blanket attack. That means instantly firing a large number of arrows to ensure the enemy can't escape. So accuracy isn't important. The essence of this archery technique lies in how to fire enough arrows simultaneously, how to evenly distribute spiritual energy to each arrow, how to concentrate all spiritual energy on a few arrows while using the rest to cover them. This is what I call subtle control."
He used the sun as his target, and the nearly infinite distance between them could clearly reflect his every progress - the distance of a single arrow, whether multiple arrows could be shot at the same time, whether some arrows could be made faster and some arrows slower under the premise of control, etc., with the distance from the sun to the ground as a reference, it was very intuitive.
After listening to Chen Yunli's broad-minded explanation, Luo Qifang's eyes lit up. She stuffed the food into Su Chenyu's hands and excitedly came forward to discuss with him.
What followed were many words that were difficult for Su Chen to understand, such as "the ultimate goal of archery is to shoot down the sun" and "the ability to make bricks fly is what an archer pursues". The air was filled with a happy atmosphere.
He couldn't understand it, but he was deeply shocked.
He had never seen such a kind of archer before.
Su Chenyu shook his head helplessly, carried the food to the kitchen, went to the backyard to pick some vegetables and cooked a pot of soup. When he came out, the two were still chatting, and it seemed that they would continue chatting endlessly.
Chen Yunli's broad imagination provided Luo Qifang with a lot of inspiration for cultivation, and Luo Qifang's rigorous thinking gave Chen Yunli many constructive practice suggestions.
One of them showed the same spirit of studying hard as when he was writing his university thesis, while the other showed the determination to actively enter the state of enlightenment in order to improve his strength. The two of them collided fiercely, sparking a wave of sparks about the path of cultivation.
Su Chenyu was eating the grilled fish on the stone slab that Luo Qifang bought, flipping through a medical book while listening to their discussion, a smile of satisfaction gradually appearing in his eyes.
Luo Qifang hadn't been as happy as she was today for a long time, and she hadn't had such a pleasant chat with someone for a long time.
Even though he didn't understand Chen Yunli's strange training method of "If Heaven hadn't given birth to me, my archery skills would have been as dark as eternity", and he didn't understand why Luo Qifang both admired and was troubled by his theory of "A truly strong person should be invincible within the same level, and be able to fight for one with those above them", but... he knew that this was a good thing for both of them, and that was enough.
Su Chenyu's good mood lasted until Chen Yunli said, "If I can shoot down the sun one day, I will be considered a master of archery."
"Mr. Yunli! Put away your dangerous thoughts! Come and have lunch!"
What has the sun done to you? Why is it so obsessed with shooting people down?
You can’t shoot! You really can’t shoot!
"Actually, you don't have to shoot the sun. The strongest archer in my hometown doesn't shoot the sun in the conceptual sense, but a mythical beast."
Chen Yunli sat down at the table.
"What mythical beast?" Luo Qifang asked curiously, "I've never heard of any existing mythical beast being killed by a powerful archer."
Chen Yunli did not hesitate to bring up the myth of his hometown: "Golden Crow, he shot down nine of them!"
Luo Qifang: “!!!”
Su Chenyu: “???”
Can you brag so much?
…
On the other side of the distant East China Sea, at the end of the Wuye Mountains, in Yang Valley, known as the place where the sun rises, a long-hidden sect has opened its doors.
The man walking in the door slowly walked down the steps wearing a conical hat, his eyes looking through the gauze curtain in front of him at the outside world.
"Living in Honglumen for a long time, I finally see the world..."
Before he could finish his words of regret, he heard the voice of the sect master coming from the gate behind him: "Changsheng, on this trip, please investigate something for me."
Sui Changsheng suddenly stopped, turned around and bowed, "Master, please speak."
"Go check if there's a Free and Easy Realm expert on Biechou Island who has practiced archery and shot and killed nine members of my Golden Crow clan."
"……ah?"
Master, please wake up.
Counting from the beginning of the world, all the members of the Jinwu clan added up to less than nine, okay?
